The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the southernmost island in the Caribbean archipelago. Located just off the north-eastern coast of the South America mainland, the twin island Republic is home to international greats such as Miss Universe 1998, Wendy Fitzwilliam; Cricket Legend, Brian Charles Lara; and Carnival, the Greatest Show on Earth. The larger of the two islands, Trinidad, has a boot-like shape, measures 37 miles (80km) by 50 miles (60 km), and is noted for having an ecological and geographical diversity that is unmatched in the region.
The capital city, Port of Spain, is the business centre of the Caribbean, housing the headquarters for a number of local businesses, a myriad of restaurants and nightlife entertainment like no other. The sister isle of Tobago is a stark contrast to Trinidad. Considerably smaller in size, Tobago is well-known for its coral reefs, pristine blue waters and white sandy beaches,the smaller island is perfect for leisure activities and an immersive experience with nature. An abundance of natural reserves in oil and natural gas has made significant contributions to the strength of the Trinidad & Tobago economy—making it one of the strongest economies in the region.

Tobago is not that famous for museums but the Tobago Museum is a definitely the cultural highlight of the island. It’s located in Barrack Guard House just outside of Scarborough. It has been used as a military prison 150 years ago and the visitors can enjoy seeing various artefacts from the period. I found it very interesting, especially the skeleton of a real Tobago native.
Tobago Museum is famous for its displays of former slavery. They also have in display big collection of antiques, things older than 150 years. I found it cool they offer a small discount for persons younger than 19 years and special discount for children under 12. It was a great visit.
Fine visit, but I’ve seen better and more fun museums. It’s historic museum about Tobago and its natives.
Perhaps you don’t expect to see museums on such an exotic island as this one, but yeah, it’s worth seeing it, there is art and artifacts from the slavery periods. It’s a small museum and it’s a cool place to visit.
